I am very please to present a guest blogger for the first time! Richard Alexander, President of Paddle Canada has graciously allowed me to reprint his letter to members that was printed in the latest issue of KANAWA magazine.

You might remember Richard as we did a profile on him in our series, "Better Know and Instructor".

This will help shed some light from Paddle Canada's perspective on some of the major changes that have been taking place here in Canada over the past 4-6 months.
